This is an odd question, but can this be put on concrete walls and covered with drywall?

Not very easily. The material is thin, so doesn't provide much insulation value, and would be hard to glue to the wall. There are better products out there for that. Rigid foam insulation boards come in 2'x4' and 4'x8' sheets and come in 1/2",3/4", 1", 1.5" and 2" thicknesses. The 1/2"by 4'x8' sheets are $7.45 each at Home Depot (other lumber stores carry them as well), so they are cheaper per square foot than the Roberts felt underlayment, have a higher R value, and are easier to install. You can glue these foam sheets to the concrete using construction adhesive, then glue the drywall to the foam. A better method is to use 1x3" boards power nailed through the foam to act as an anchor for the drywall - then screw the drywall to the boards. There are also specialized products that are foam and already have the solid areas imbedded within the foam to screw the drywall to - but they are more expensive. The walls need to be dry, with no water seepage at any time of the year, or you will have mold problems.

Yes, using concrete screws anchors. You will need to drill into the wall using the appropriate drill and then put a contrete anchor into the hole to accept the screw. Not that complicated.

I'm sure it would work and paint would cover it well but I did a quick search and "thin-set mortar" is recommended for that job. I'm pretty sure it's very similar to concrete patch.

The box has hardware for installing it on a concrete wall or a wood wall. Fortunately, I was able to install it on a cinder block wall. You must open the door of the box in order to install it on the wall so the support screws are securely hidden when the door is locked. It's very sturdy metal and no one is going to be able to take it off the wall without knocking a hole in the wall (in my case). However, I wouldn't install it on drywall because drywall is not sturdy enough. I'm extremely happy with this security box.

yes but you must use the correct length of screws and anchors, e.g., toggles. You can't screw directly into drywall.

I applied it to studs using drywall screws, and then covered it with the drywall. The material is very heavy and may not hold up with just an adhesive.

My husband said for concrete, you should drill a hole first and use an insert that the screw actually screws into. We hung ours on the wall and we also had to search for a sturdy screw with a small enough head to fit. I must say it was worth the trouble, we have gotten a lot of compliments on our wall art. Good luck.

If your mounting on a wall with Drywall I would try to mount to two studs, if you can't hit studs there are fastener systems that expand in the Drywall cavity to give support. Just trythe to staydo within aa few inchesthings of thethe stud. On a concrete wall tapcons will work fine.

Maybe. It would depend on what you are sanding. If you are trying to sand concrete it's only sandpaper for paint,wood or drywall. If you are sanding paint off of concrete it might work but it will not work on concrete itself.

I've not tried it, but assume if attached securely to studs behind drywall it would work.

With a little creativity, yes. Install electrical box, etc. But, it seems a little flimsy to fix permanently to a wall. Ypu might want something more substancial.

I am not certain if this can be applied to concrete walls but I'm sure the seller can answer this for you. Here is their contact email: Leenthegraphicsqueen@gmail.com It's a great decal so hopefully you'll get the answer you're looking for!

This product works best on clean concrete or concrete block surfaces. If you read the instructions it suggests wire brushing off any paint from your surface. What is drywall paint, on drywall or concrete surface. It won't work on drywall. I used it on concrete blocks and it penetrated completely to the outside, even through the bricks too. On my perimeter skirt wall on a manufactured home which was pit set below ground level two courses of concrete block with Dry-Lok on the outside. It formed a white crusty surface that appeared as though salt dried there. It can be brushed off and it became water proof as well. GREAT Product! Dry as a desert down there now. Good luck.

I don't know the manufacturer's recommendations. I put it directly on unpainted drywall and it has been fine.

I think so, if what you mean is leaving it without a protective layer inside a drywall covered frame. This foam meets fire codes to a degree, however, the safest thing to do is to call the Fire Marshall in your area (County or State if rural, City or Town if incorporated area) and ask specifically while describing exactly how you intend to use it. It meets code in my area, but it is not openly exposed but is behind drywall. When you call, have the specs of the foam ready. They will give you the best answer.

Yes. It can. You need to check with your handyman. My husband is a carpenter and installed it in about an hour in our wall that was about 6 inches thick. He added some plastic in the pass through areas.

Don't see why not. It comes with hardware for mounting to drywall. The only consideration would be the chance of someone bumping it. The bulbs burn hot and it would stick out from the wall at least 8 inches.
